Pros: single piece of aluminium folded to form three sides met with venting plastic on the fourth side makes for a very slim very sturdy very attractive enclosure. Integrated usb cable is great for not lugging a normal one around.

Cons: integrated usb cable could be attached better.

Overall Review: I've had the case with the same drive in it for a couple years hauling it in my backpack at school and travel, have had zero problems.

Pros: for me the large file (20-1000MB) transfer read/write is 30/15 MBps many small file (10KB-1MB) read is 15 MBps

Cons: many-small-file (10KB-1MB) write is a painful 500KBps lanyard loop too small for a standard keychain ring

Overall Review: nice construction
